Autosticha acharacta is a moth in the Autostichidae family. It was described by Meyrick in 1918. It is found in north-western India.

The wingspan is 12-15 mm. The forewings are pale ochreous irrorated fuscous. The stigmata are small, dark fuscous, the plical slightly before the first discal, a cloudy dot on the dorsum beneath the second discal. There is an almost marginal series of cloudy dark fuscous dots around the posterior part of the costa and termen, in females less distinct. The hindwings are light greyish.
